Reliability Services
Reliability processes (RLCM)
Reliability Life Cycle Management is a methodology that takes a structured approach to the management of reliability. The methodology encompasses all key activities from concept to production needed to design and manufacture products with high reliability. When designing products and processes, building in reliability from inception translates into lower costs and higher reliability.
Reliability Benchmarking (RLCMI)
Reliability Life Cycle Management Index is a reliability benchmark system that evaluates a company’s reliability process against industry’s best-in-class and provides a roadmap to improvement.
Design for Reliability Services
Design for Reliability Services pertains to the application of specific tests, methods or analyses to target particular company’s needs. Some of these capabilities are: Accelerated and Highly Accelerated Life Testing, Quality Function Deployment (QFD), Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA), Life Data Analysis and Design of Experiments (DOE).
Reliability Training and Certifications
Six sigma certifications and support for certification in DMAIC (Define-Measure-Analyze-Improve-Control) and DFSS (Design for Six Sigma). Reviews and mentoring in Six Sigma certifications projects for Green Belts, Black Belts and Master Black Belts, as well as facilitation of the Six Sigma exam for Green Belts, Black Belts and Master Black Belts certification.
Simulation and Testing Services
Benchmark, CUP™, Validation and Trouble Shooting Testing
Testing capabilities include: Benchmark testing where important competitor’s product data is collected with the purpose of evaluating designs and the integration of improvements in products and processes; Customer Usage Profiling (CUP™) is a data collection system designed to provide intelligence on how customers are really using products; Validation testing evaluates the accuracy of existing and new simulation models and Trouble Shooting is design to solve complex design issues.
Reliability Benchmarking (RLCMI)
Reliability Life Cycle Management Index is a reliability benchmark system that evaluates a company’s reliability process against industry’s best-in-class and provides a roadmap to improvement.
Systems Engineering
Systems Engineering / Analysis Leads Design (SE/ALD™) process is driving many of today’s successful products. SE/ALD™ leverages CAD/CAM/CAE in all phases of product development – from early concept to detailed component and system design. Testing and analyzing CAD models up-front allows numerous designs to be evaluated, at low cost, with the best design selected from the outset. SE/ALD™ improves product / development costs, performance, and reliability, while significantly increasing return on investment.
Market Research and Target Setting Services
Competitive benchmarking based on prioritized product parameters from Voice of the Customer (VOC) help construct completed Target Setting matrices, which will define the most important P/M (Predictable and Measured) parameters and their targets to achieve the business objectives.
Case Studies
RelPath®
RelPath® Reliability Software was created to assist companies in the fast, effective, and consistent application of the Reliability Life Cycle Management (RLCM) methodology. RLCM is a framework to ensure the application of reliability practices within a company.
